Transitioning Older Workers Into New Opportunities Doesn’t Have to Be Hard
Organizations have a responsibility, as well as a clear economic incentive, to support them in their next steps.
I am a lifelong entrepreneur with a focus on sustainability. My own business launches that have exceeded 40 years, 20 years, 10 years and five years. I was awarded U.S. Small Business New Product of the Year, as well as Fast Company's Fast 50 (now The World's 50 Most Innovative Companies).
